You misunderstand.  The bug isn't that it prevents demons going through; the bug is that it prevents the floor from being removed, while letting the dwarves magically remove the stone below it (through the floor, without damaging it.)  There's no special relevence to demons except that it can be exploited to find them without releasing them.

Okay, I'll take care of it at some point.

Doors do the same thing. Basically the miner is unable to mine out the square with the building on it, but can mine out the square below it. Thus he mines what he can and leaves.
